    I'm searching for (4) 15 inch Buick rims to use on my 1965 Skylark.

    Thanks

    I'm looking for decent driver quality steel or Buick rally.

    If steel I will need to locate small dish hubcaps.

    Gonna do front disc conversion in spring and will want 15 inch rims for larger rotors.

    I currently have 14 inch with original Buick rally.

    Thanks
    Robert

    You do know that if you source stock GM discs you can run the 14" rims with no problem.
    I converted mine using 72 disc brake changeover (all GM), and my 14" rims worked fine.
    Just saying.

    I think,and I might be wrong,that the 67 and earlier mag wheels will not fit the disc brake rotors,but like I said,I might be wrong.Bruno.

    I'll have to check and confirm the fit and a source for a 1972 spindle disc set up.
    In the meantime, I'd still like to see if I can get a deal on 15 inch rims.
    Thanks,
    Robert

    Bruno, You are right, 14" rally wheels will not fit over the disc brakes on 67, even 68 disc's.
